Hi Anonymous,
I don't think there is a causal link between the two although the symptoms often mimic each other. Have you been diagnosed with Lyme and think it may possibily be lupus instead? If this is the case, perhaps a second opinion will help answer that question.

If you have additional questions, please feel free to ask.
